Every year I read outlandish claims about our squad and every year they fail to live up to these unrealistic expectations.

I take your points about trade-ups in personnel perhaps being over-egged but equally there are grounds for optimism we may improve. The pack overall is better. We've traded Lineham for Fonua. And younger squad players like Logan and Abdull could well be better in 2016 than 2015. Radford has said that work in execution is the top priority in pre season. One challenge is whether other clubs have strengthened to a greater extent than us, and I think Catalans for example have done so, and Salford will benefit from Sheens. Interesting to see how it plays out.

Sure, you'll be claiming posters are making predictions of a "great season" next. Oh wait... Outlandish indeed.
